I Eat Super Clean And Am Always Watching What I Eat.

What Inspired Me Was That I Knew There Were So Many Other People Who Were Struggling With The Same Things I Was And Didn't Have Answers. When I Finally Started To Heal, That Was The Inspiration. My Body Changed, My Energy Level Changed, And My Overall Well-being Improved.

Here’s The Thing, Making Out With A Girl On Camera … They’re Beautiful And Soft. I Get Why You Guys Are Into It.

I Get To Wake Up And Do What I Love Every Day And I Don't Take That For Granted. I Feel Grateful For It Every Day.

When You're In Prison, There's No Hiding. These Women Are Not Hiding Behind Towels And Shower Curtains. They Go To The Bathroom With No Doors On The Stalls. It Would Actually Look Weird, If These Women Were Hiding.

The Worst Diets Are Ones That Restrict Your Calories Too Much And Try To Trick Your Body. You Have No Energy, And It's Ridiculous.

I've Never Played A Manipulative, Drug-smuggling Lesbian Before. For Me, It's Pushing Me In An Area That's Great. There Are Days When I'd Read The Script And I'd Be Like, "oh, God, I Can't Believe I Have To Do That."

I Keep My Center By Really Making Sure I Am Nourished And Taking Care Of My Body. I Cook All Of My Own Food And Always Make Sure I Am Eating Healthy, Nourishing, Comforting Foods. I Feel Derailed When I Don't Do This.

I Love Entertaining And Doing Martha Stewart Stuff.

I Love Cooking And Spending Time In Mine.

The First Acting I Ever Did Was An Italian Commercial. Once I Did That, I Said, 'this Acting Thing Is Awesome.'

For Me, Personally, I Watch Pretty Much Everything On Netflix, And I Watch All The Episodes In A Row, When I Can.

I Know That When You Take Care Of Yourself And Are Happy And Healthy, You Are Better For Those Around You And Your Environment.

And My Mouth Is Not A Sewer, Although Some People May Think It Is.

I've Realized How Important It Is To Have Women In Your Life. You Get To A Certain Age Where You're Like, 'i Need Women Around.'

Love Your Fellow Man, And Take Care Of Each Other And Your Environment.

There's Nothing You Could Say That Would Shock Me.

I Always Have Really Fresh, Hormone-free, Additive-free Chicken, Healthy Veggies, And Brown Rice In The Fridge To Grab Because I'm Always On The Go.

Always On The Go

When I'm Pushed Outside Of My Comfort Zone, I Feel Vulnerable. That's Also One Of The Reasons I Like Being Pushed Out Of My Comfort Zone, Because It Makes You Grow As A Person.

Now That I Know What Goes Into Making A Pilot, Keeping It On The Air, And Keeping Your Fans, I'm At A Point Now Where I Do A Pilot And Just Hope For The Best. If It Doesn't Work Out, It Doesn't Work Out.

Of Course, We're Supportive Of The Gay And Lesbian Community. I've Just Never Portrayed That On Camera. Once I Met Taylor [schilling] I Knew That It Was Going To Be Really Comfortable And Okay, But The Nudity Was A Little Bit Of An Issue For Me.

I Used To Wear Boxers And A Tank Top, But Now I Sleep In The Nude. It's Kind Of Weird, Because I Used To Have To Wear Something To Bed, Whether It Was A Tank Top Or Whatever. And Now If I Have Any Clothes At All On, It's Really Hard To Get To Sleep.

When You Eat Pure Food That Isn't Genetically Modified, Your Physical And Mental State Does Improve And It's Worth The Effort To Make That Happen.

My Fitness Routine Includes Things That Are Not Stressful On My Body - Swimming, Yoga, Stretching, And Rebounding. When I Used To Kill Myself In The Gym, It Had An Adverse Effect On Me Because My Body Would Be So Stressed Out And Constantly In Fight-or-flight Mode.

In Any Character I Ever Play, Whether She's Good Or Bad Or Whatever, My Most Important Thing Is Heart.

My Fitness Routine Includes Things That Are Not Stressful On My Body - Swimming, Yoga, Stretching, And Rebounding.

When You're Not Under A 'series Regular' Contract, And Other Jobs Come Up, You Try To Juggle Everything.

On A Lot Of Shows That I've Done, We Had The Same Directors, Which Was Cool. But Then, It's Also Great To Do Shows Where The Director Changes Every Week Because You Get To See All These Different Personalities And See What You Like Dealing With Better, As An Actor. But, Jodie Was Amazing.

You Can Always Turn A Bad Kisser Into A Good One.

It Was Really Cool Because You Can Tell That She Directs In A Way That She Wants To Be Spoken To, As An Actress. That's Really Nice, And You Appreciate That. Dealing With The Actors Was More Important To Her Than Anything Else, Which Was Really Nice.

So, I Went To Germany And Ended Up Parasailing Around This Castle. I Was In Germany Sightseeing, Eating Bratwurst And Hanging Out In Beer Gardens. And Then, I Got Back From Germany And Got A Call Where They Were Like, "we Need To Fly You To New York Tomorrow To Read With Taylor [schilling]." I Was Like, "wait, For Alex, The Manipulative Drug-smuggling Lesbian Girl?!," And They Were Like, "yeah."

Eating Healthy And Taking Care Of My Body And My Mind Really Make Me Come Alive, And Seeing Others Doing That Inspires Me To Stay With It. I Always Feel Great When I Do.

The Fact That Anyone Would Find Me Sexy Is Very, Very Flattering, But Ridiculous. I So Don't Believe It. But I'm Flattered. Truth Is, I Don't Lift A Finger To Look Sexy. Ever.

Acting Wasn't Even In My World At All. My Oldest Sister Worked At 'glamour' Magazine And Said I Should Model, But I Had No Interest.

I Like To Think I'll Just Be Walking Down The Street One Day And Stop And Meet Someone, Like, Oh My God, You're Awesome, And Then We Start Dating.

I Eat Organic And Cook My Food Whenever Possible, And I Live By The 80/20 Rule. Eighty Percent Of The Time I'm Stash All The Way, 20 Percent I Enjoy The Things I Want.

I'm Obsessed With 'homeland.' It's Not Even Okay.

Whenever There's A Nude Scene, It's Always Uneasy. You're Not In The Comfort Of Your Own Home With Your Significant Other.

When You're In Prison, And We're Left To Our Own Devices, You're Stripped Of Everything, And You Really Get To See Who These People Are, The Good And The Bad.

Working Hard And Appreciating The Accomplishments That Have Come From That Keeps Me Grounded.

What's Great Is That A Lot Of Us Are Playing So Against Type In This, And It's Awesome. All Of The Writers Put Faith In The Fact That We Know What We're Doing. We Have Creative Freedom, And It's Awesome. I Think It All Worked Out. Everybody On The Show Is So Good.

To Make A Long Story Short, I Auditioned For The Role Of Piper Because I Read The Pilots Every Year And This Show Was Head-and-shoulders Above Any Pilot I've Read In Awhile. It Was Amazing. So, I Read For Piper And I Knew That I Wasn't Really Right For It, But I Loved It So Much That I Wanted To Read For It.

Well, The Clothes Are Really Cool That We Wear. The Sets Are So Funny, Because It's Like Everything Is So Real.

People In General Have A Preconceived Idea Of What Prison Is, From Seeing Documentaries Or Whatever.

There's A Particular Hierarchy In The Prison - Class Distinctions, High-school Cliques. You Have To Learn How To Navigate.

When I Feel Connected, Mind-body And Spirit, I Feel Centered.

I Don't Want To Do Anything Like Can't Hardly Wait, I Don't Want To Do Anything Like Scream. I Saw All Those Movies, And They Were Good, But They're Just Not What I Want To Do.

Even In Real Life, I'd Rather Hang Out With Guys.

When I Finally Started To Heal, That Was The Inspiration.

There Is A Much Bigger Picture We Are All Striving For. To Sweat The Small Stuff Just Stresses You Out For No Reason.

And Other People Get The Opportunity To Leave Prison, And Then They Do Something To Get Put Back In There Because They Can't Actually Function In Society. It's Really Cool Because You Get To See All These Different Women, Their Backstories, Where They Come From, Their Upbringing And Why They Get To Where They Get To, And They're All Completely Different. It's Really Cool That You Get To See All Those Storylines.

Every Girl On Tv, In Real Life, Sure You Want To Meet That Soul Mate And Fall In Love And Have The Big Thing, But Until That Happens, You Gotta Kiss A Lot Of Frogs.

Falling In Love

It's Funny, I Used To Say On 'that 70′s Show', You Could Really Put Us In Any Decade, And It Was About The People And The Characters And That We Cared About Each Other.

I Don't Know How People Recognize Me.

I'm The Type Of Person That Will Do Triple Sessions In One Day. I'll Do Pilates, I'll Do Spinning, And Then I'll Go To The Gym And Do Weights - Which Is Insane.

I'm The Tomboy So I Got To Be A Little Butch.

Food Nourishes You, Brings People Together, And I Feel That Anybody Can Bond Over Food.

I Love Being A Redhead. It's A Rare Thing, So I Think There's A Bond Between Redheads.

For Some Reason, I Like To Put Myself In Situations Where I Don't Even Know How I Ended Up There. I Never Want To Be Complacent Or Comfortable In A Role.

As Actresses, Our Schedules Are Really Wonky And We Work Weird Hours. For Me, Personally, I Watch Pretty Much Everything On Netflix, And I Watch All The Episodes In A Row, When I Can. I Don't Really Watch Much Of Any Live Tv Anymore, And I Feel Like A Lot Of People Are Doing That Now.

Netflix Is Amazing 'cause They Trust The Creator To Do Their Job, And They Trust Us To Do Our Job. They're Really Smart And Just Let Us Do Our Thing And Deliver A Great Job.

I Know That Many Ailments Can Be Healed With Food By Nourishing Your Body Instead Of Taking Drugs.

Modest. When They Meet Me, They Think I'm Going To Be Outgoing, But I Like Things Low-key. I Don't Like People To Think I'm Bragging.

They Have To Be Able To Spark My Interest So I Want To Pursue It, And They Have To Have An Awesome Personality, Really Laid-back. All Those Things Are Sexy To Me.

When You Work With An Actor, It's Cool Because They Know What It's Like To Be Directed Themselves. Jodie Directed A Scene With Me And Taylor That Was When She Starts Talking To Me Again In Prison And It's Our First Actual Confrontation That We Have, Where Some Stuff Comes Out.

Food Is A Passion Because I Basically Grew Up In A Kitchen.

Well, I Had Done Nudity In One Other Thing, But Nudity For An Actress Is A Very Particular Thing. It Has To Do With The Material, And Making Sure It's Not Gratuitous, That It's Done In A Way That's Shot Beautifully, And It's For A Reason. And I'd Never Played A Lesbian Before.

When I Have To Do A Scene Where I Feel Vulnerable As An Actress, I Always Grow From Those Experiences, So I Welcome Them. Even Though It May Not Feel Amazing At First. You Have To Embrace It And Use It To Improve Yourself.

When I See A Beautiful Piece Of Art, It Inspires Me To Be Creative.

Food Is A Passion Because I Basically Grew Up In A Kitchen. My Mother Was A Gourmet Chef And I'm The Youngest Of Five Kids. We Would Always Congregate In The Kitchen.

I Never Think Of Myself As Any Kind Of Sex Symbol, But I Get Letters From All Over, All Sorts. It's Really Cool. I Get A Lot From Inmates, Which Is Kind Of Scary. But The Best Was The Guy Who Wanted To Send Me A Plane Ticket To Fly Me To His Prom.

But Now That I'm A Blonde, Guys Are So Blatant About Coming On To Me.

When I See An Amazing Play Or Movie, It Inspires Me As An Actress And A Filmmaker.

My Family Was Very Unorthodox. My Mother Was Very Eccentric And Amazing. She Always Treated Us Like Adults.

But, I Swear, They’re Turning Donna Into Annie Hall This Season. More Ties. More Suits. But They’re Also Keeping Her Really Motivated, Ya Know? Like, Wanting To Be A Rock Journalist. Wanting To Be The First Woman President.

It's Cool Because You Get To See That Some Of These Women Are There Because They Should Be. They're Actually Not Good People To Be In Society. And Then, Other People Are There Because They Just Made A Really Retarded Mistake.

I Do Think This Is Where Television Is Going, And I Think That It's Awesome To Be A Part Of A Show Like This Because We Are These Pioneers Into This New Medium. And It's Working. When You Look At The Success Of House Of Cards And Arrested Development, Which I Love, This Is How People Are Watching Television Now. It's Pretty Cool To Be A Part Of This Whole Thing.

The Thing That Sucks Is That There’s So Much False Data Because People Are In Mystery As To What Scientology Is, So They Just Kind Of Make Up Stuff.

The Main Thing I Learned Doing Love Scenes With A Woman Was, If It's There, It's There.
